Vintage Cellar Tasting Notes:
Made from 45% Macabeo, 25% Xarel-lo, 30% Parellada, the nose offers regal yeast and richness, while the palate has complexity to prop up apple, citrus and grapefruit flavors. Solid from front to back, with health and freshness. Cava, Catalan sparkling wine, is made mostly in the regions of Penedes, and the capital of cava is Sant Sadurni d´Anoia. Dibon is located in Vilafranca del Penedes, aproximately 20 Km from Sant Sadurni. The Dibon vineyard is in the process of becoming fully organic. It consists of 75 hectares of trellised vines 1000 feet above the Mediterranean Sea.
Personal Tasting Notes:
This clear wine had a very small nose with a bit of a scent of hay, sour lemons and grapefruits. This wine was rather dry and therefore I did not like it very much. further the wine had a bit of a taste of nail polish, minerals, salt and paint. Although the wine was dry and a bit smooth at first it did have a spicy finish.
This wine was tasted without food
